What We're Doing for a Klondike . . .

Since a recent post about the Klondike® Bar was so much fun, we've decided to continue our taste testing project, which is concentrated only on the KB.

That's because, as noted earlier, there's currently 12 varieties available. We've been checking out supermarket sales during weekly grocery shopping trips. It hasn't been too difficult, since there's 3 major grocery stores nearby . . . and since it's summer and warm, there's been ice cream sales every week and usually that includes KBs.

Lucky us (we know).

Here's the flavors we've been sampling this week. And, yes, we DO manage to curtail ourselves and only have 1 each time.


The test taste results so far . . .

Grenville likes Mint Chocolate Chip, Rocky Road, Caramel Pretzel, Double Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, while Beatrice favors Double Chocolate and Dark Chocolate best.

We both agree that the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup needs more PB flavor.

Of course, we plan to continue this research project for the rest of the summer. And, it may be necessary to re-sample some of those already-tried flavors. 

You know, just to make sure the first sampling was accurate . . . right?

Anyone else been doing a similar project this summer? (doesn't have to be with KB)

We've had one box of Klondikes since your post. I wish they had sticks to make the eating less problematic, but it was fun anyway. Just had a pretty plain type.

Now that is research I could get into! I haven't had all the flavors, but I've had the double chocolate and really like it.

You have undertaken a difficult and arduous task. Alas someone has to do it. I wish you both well and hope it is not too trying for you.

I have not even known about the products but I will be looking for them now. I can't see there would be ever a really bad flavor. You are making me hungry.

You have to be very thorough in this research project, after all!

Like L.D. commented, there are probably no bad flavors! lol

I saw Klondike candy bites at the store today. That was new to me!

I LOVE Heath bars - I'll look for that one (maybe) - supposed to be on a diet.
